Just Started My First Niche Site Are These Rankings Normal?

I started my niche site 2 days ago, I have some good seo optimized content and no backlinks. The niche is not overly competitive but the first 10 results are very broad results from health sites such as askmen etc. im ranked in 140 page 14. Is this normal at all, do I need more content or do I just need to slowly build it up?

Within 2 days in 14 page is not bad at all. It will go down and up few days... google dancing for new articles. It's normal.Keep posting more unique articles to your main site and wait few more days. If possible try to send some social signals to indexed articles. After waiting around 2 to 3 weeks you will see a stable position in google. Then if need start link building slowly.

I would say start with press release! let the world know about your blog or business! its natural for any business to do press release when they start something new.
PR can keep get you some good links and keep you safe from unnatural link building stuff for a 2 day old site!
